Yes. I was thinking of opioids in particular. But there are others. Ketamine, as ChairmanMAO has correctly pointed out, is an extremely effective (and safe) medication. Drugs that are abused are usually done so because they are effective medications. Nobody's out on the street "jonesing" for an SSRI. There is an alarming trend in this country of the goverment trying to protect us from ourselves. It sickens me. There have been a lot of overblown news reports lately of the "dangerous" drug dextromethorphan. Once again it's all because a few morons decided to drink 20 bottles of cough syrup to get a buzz.
